My weekend was brimming full of all things I wanted
from it and some that I never expected.
My former list with finished items bolded
Read 3rd week workshop reading for my class
Wash the dog
Clean the floors
Change the sheets
Clean up my books
Take a long hot bubble bath
Get a pedicure
Look for chocolate brown paint for the living room
Read a book that is non-school related
Go for coffee
Clean up the bedroom
Not bad for a long weekend.� I usually can�t cross
anything off of my lists. �I still need to give the dog a
bath, take a long hot bubble bath (that got thwarted after that bathtub scene in Amityville Horror did me in for that!!!!)� I did manage to clean up a lot of stuff.� The only thing that really needs cleaned is the bathroom and I�m hoping the man takes a bottle of bleach to that sucker today (that is IF he gets sent home early)�
My
son was with me all weekend and we went to the movies together, went clothing
shopping together (I bought a new lime green patterned skirt and matching shirt
and tangerine skort and matching shirt�cute SUMMER feeling clothes)
Tonight
I made dinner for my son and my man.� I
made barbeque chicken legs (in the oven) and broccoli cheesy mac and creamed
corn.� Yum.� I was craving Barbeque big time all week.� I found out on Friday that I�ll have to
drive across the bay every day this week twice. Geez m�queez my damn gas bill
is going to be HUGE!� Gah�.I can expense
it but whew I hate going to the gas station three times a week and seeing those
prices.� Hate it!
I
went to the bookstore on Friday prior to my son�s arrival and read a good bit
of a book that just came out in paperback.�
I was loving it and wanted to buy it and realized I forgot my card�.so I
looked up the guys website and dropped him a note and surprise surprise two
days later he wrote back to me!� I love
authors that I dig and then they turn out to be NICE!� Love �em.� I also went
back and BOUGHT the book prior to getting his return message.� I�m loving it.�

A few days ago I told the man I was disappointed that he was not going to bring me a cup of coffee.� I realize now that I hurt his feelings and though it wasn�t intended I have to stop doing that�.
And finally it must be addressed.� Two little girls murdered in Florida within weeks by known former sex offenders.� I believe some laws need to be changed.� If you are a sex offender against children you should be under some sort of surveillance or the original sentences need to be longer.� I can�t bear to watch the local news right now, I just sit there and shake and cry and fill up on anger and helplessness.� My chest feels so heavy�.�
Today I let my son walk down the street by himself to go
to Big Lots and buy some folders and crayons etc.� I feel a sense of wanting to give him freedom and independence
and then I fear �.and yet I want him to live life.� And then I�m grateful he�s a boy and not a girl and then I smash
my thoughts to bits and pieces because there is no guarantee and then I just
hang my head and sob for the way life is so dangerous to helpless
children.�
